first man to visit moon?

Answer 1

the 1 and only neil amstrong

Answer 2

It depends on what you mean by visit. The first humans too the moon were the crew of Apollo 8, Frank Borman Jim Lovell and William Anders. These were the first humans to go to the and moon where they completed 10 orbits then returned to earth. The first humans to land on the moon were the crew of Apollo 11 on 20 July 1969. Or 21 July if your an aussie like me. Neil Armstrong was the first to step out followed by Edwin Buzz Aldrin.

A total of 27 humans have been to the moon. 12 have walked on its surface, 12 have just orbited (command module pilots of Apollo 11,12,14,15,16,17) including all 6 crews of Apollo 8 and 10 and 3 that never went into orbit, but had to perform a free return trajectory too get back to earth after an oxygen tank explosion. A free return trajectory is when you go around the moon a allow the moon to bring you back by its graviational pull (Apollo 13)

Answer 3

On 20 July 1969, Neil Armstrong became the first human being to set foot on the moon. Armstrong was a veteran aviator: he had flown 78 combat missions over Korea as a Navy fighter pilot, then joined NASA as a civilian test pilot. He was accepted into the astronaut corps in 1962. Armstrong was the pilot of the Gemini 8 mission (launched 16 March 1966) and then was named commander for the Apollo 11 mission of 1969. Along with crewmates Michael Collins and Buzz Aldrin, Armstrong flew to the moon; while Collins circled the moon in the command module Columbia, Armstrong and Aldrin landed on the lunar surface in the lunar module Eagle. Armstrong was the first to step onto the moon's surface, uttering the famous phrase "That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind." After retiring from NASA in 1971, Armstrong was a professor at the University of Cincinnati for nearly a decade. His authorized biography, First Man: The Life of Neil A. Armstrong, was written by former NASA historian James Hansen and published in 2005.

Armstrong's first words on the moon are sometimes quoted as, "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." Armstrong maintains that he said "for a man," and that is how the statement was reported the next day, but tapes of his words are inconclusive.

Answer 4

American Neil Armstrong became the first man to walk on the Moon.
The astronaut stepped onto the Moon's surface, in the Sea of Tranquility, at 0256 GMT, nearly 20 minutes after first opening the hatch on the Eagle landing craft.

Armstrong had earlier reported the lunar module's safe landing at 2017 GMT with the words: "Houston, Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has landed."

As he put his left foot down first Armstrong declared: "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind."

He described the surface as being like powdered charcoal and the landing craft left a crater about a foot deep.

Armstrong spent his first few minutes on the Moon taking photographs and soil samples in case the mission had to be aborted suddenly.

He was joined by colleague Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin at 0315 GMT and the two collected data and performed various exercises - including jumping across the landscape - before planting the Stars and Stripes flag at 0341 GMT.

They also unveiled a plaque bearing President Nixon's signature and an inscription reading: "Here men from the planet Earth first set foot upon the Moon July 1969 AD. We came in peace for all mankind."

Answer 5

Neil Armstrong on July 20, 1969. Buzz Aldrin went out next. The idea that the landing was filmed in the desert or on a set is idiocy. We spent way too much money and lost three men in our quest to get to the moon to end up filming it on Earth. Those who say it was faked are just plain stupid and hateful of America's ability to do what no one else has done. A total of seventeen men have been on the moon. Our last trip up was in 1972.

Answer 6

Neil Armstrong was the first to set foot on the moon on the Apollo 11 flight. The second was Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin.

A third astronaut, Michael Collins, remained in orbit as the other two crew went to the surface and performed experiments and collected rock samples.
